Prospera advances Latina economic empowerment through leadership development, entrepreneurship and cooperative business ownership. We believe that when women are at the forefront of our local economies, entire communities thrive.

Mission

Prospera partners with Latina entrepreneurs to launch social enterprises that foster cooperation, economic independence, and well-being in immigrant communities.

Our comprehensive, culturally specific programs address the unique challenges and the immense resourcefulness that Latina immigrants bring. Through our programs, Latina entrepreneurs come together in a safe space to take risks and access the tools and the capital they need to achieve economic independence and well-being.

Our unique approach

Prospera offers leadership and entrepreneurship programs that respond to the unique challenges and the immense resourcefulness that Latina immigrant women bring. We use a popular education approach because we believe Latina women own powerful experiences that make them strong entrepreneurs and natural promoters of social change. Through our culturally specific programs and Prospera’s extensive network of partners, Latina entrepreneurs access the networks, the tools and the financial resources they need to launch, grow, and become successful owners of cooperative enterprises.
